The Big Idea
Chomp! Stomp! Roar! Watch out! It’s a trio of prehistoric-era puppets! Join Crusher, Stomper, and Buster on a Jurassic pretend play journey. Simply slide the easy-glide thumb lever or pull the chunky knob on the bottom to open and close their mouths as you animate them in your own puppet shows, circle time, and more.

Brent is a big fan of the puppet show, incorporating puppet play into his parenting whenever possible, to the delight of his two sons. His favorite dino, (little) hands down, is the T-Rex. Jess's long-time love of dinos inspired her whimsical design of the Puppet-on-a-Stick Dinosaurs. The Velociraptor is her all-time favorite, even though it is more closely related to the modern-day chicken than a terrifying predator.

We picked out the dinosaur Puppets on a Stick for my 2.5 year old son. He was already a big fan of dinosaurs so they were an immediate hit. He enjoys watching us put on shows (they are especially helpful in convincing him to eat supper) and making sure they are out of reach of his little sister who is constantly trying to get into his toys.

The lever is a little tricky for a young child to figure out. The package does say 3+ so I expect my son will have it down soon. But for now it is fun to see how excited he is when we make the puppets' mouths move because there is still a bit of magic and mystery to it for him.
